I’ve finally finished my new theme and I think it looks pretty good if I do say so myself #^_^#
There are some alignment kinks to still work out but it’s 98% finished and it’s taken my a great deal of hours over two weekends.
Now it’s time to improve the content, I’ve started my adding two new Hello Kitty pixels and soon hopefully I’ll be uploading my online scrap book if only I could get it to stay in the layout properly.
I’m back in at uni now and in to my second week so I’ll be getting quite a lot of work any time now, this will probably delay me for a while but if I manage my time efficiently I should still get it done XD
Ok I’ve finally made myself my own theme from scratch but my mock up trial for the theme was made in DreamWeaver and uses tables and even though I’m reading up on CSS I have no idea how to implement it with Wordpress and CSS
But anyways feast your eyes on this :
Had a few things to iron out in my transfer to cPanel but now that it’s all sorted out I’ll get right on making more pixels, implementing my new theme and finally getting my scrap book up o(^^o)(o^^)o <–I love this emoticon dictionary
I’ve been changing computers and I’ve downloaded Firefox and Google Chrome and some other goodies but haven’t had the time to transfer all my image files for my website yet… it’s a big task and I really need to clean them up too… I have so many unnecessary files and they’re very poorly organised -__-
I’ve also started reading Speaking in styles by Jason Cranford Teague, I’m always looking for new web design books and this is the best one I’ve read yet~! I’ve already learned lots of new things and I only got it yesterday. I’ve downloaded Firebug for Firefox and Colorzilla, Palette Grabber, MeasureIt and Pixel Perfect XD
I’m also completely in love with the song Phantom of the Opera now which I happened across whilst searching for Nightwish songs on Youtube
I think I will move the story so that it’s on a different page, I like writing it but it’s hard to blog now without making the story harder to read. Vira suggested I compile it in one place and I think that will work the best ^__^ I’ll create a new page for it and when I add to the story I’ll post an update message on the main page~!
I’m half way through my exams now. SCI2010 and computer programming are now official done and dusted (both on the same day, boy that was exhausting!) I’ve done my theory exam for physiology but I still have the prac exam and a theory and prac exam still for animal diversity. I’ve made quite a few programs over the course of the semester and I wonder if I should make up a few fun ones that people can mess around with. The problem is I now know how to make java programs but I’m not sure how to display them on a html page… Can I just place a java object on the page or do I need to make up some JavaScript? I don’t know what is the best way to go about it.
Some of the programs I’d like to put up are some calculation programs such as my distance between two points program and my Farenheit/Celsius converter there are also some more complicated ones like my world cup soccer emulation that I made for a project.
Well better get back to studying ><
Wish me luck
xox
Well I thought I might update the blog for a change (’-'*)
So I know I said I’d work on making a scrap book for the site, well good news~! I found the perfect software that creates pages that look like paper with metal binder rings at the side and also a website that lets you download scrap booking image sets with different themes, they are soo cute <3
Now all have to do is upload the photos I want and figure out the best way to display the pages on the site. I hope it all works out o(^^o)
I should start working on emoticons again too, I think Stardust could really use some personalised emoticons. I’ve tried a few things but they haven’t really worked out.
Also see my beautiful rainbow Pony on the side over there —–>
Well it was made for me byKarin and whilst I was visiting her site a few days a go I saw that she’s gotten into an online comic calledQuestionable Content and I thought I’d take a look at it and I absolutely love it ~! I’m already up to comic 150 :O
Oh oh! Also I saw the cutest little pale yellow car yesterday with the number plate PKACHU (*^-^*) It was so cool and got to drive behind it on the freeway. It really made my day hehe ?
I glanced around quickly and realised that I was a long way from home.
“what–” I stared to ask. But as I turned around I realised that the Grand Tester was gone.
I started to look around for what I was supposed to do but I was in a busy city with new and strange magic. Everything lit up though I couldn’t see any fire and people held small bricks up to there ears and talked into them. I knew I must have looked odd standing there and staring but no one stopped to ask if I was lost or why I looked so confused, streams of people just walked on by as if I weren’t even there. I tried to talk to one of the people talking into their bricks but she shood me away angrily. One man was standing by a shiny post with a light of no fire on the top, I walked towards him but he breathed a cloud of strong smelling smoke towards me and coughing I fell back into the stream of people. They pushed me along and I was so confused and disheartened that I let myself be swept away.
Then I saw a side road, tiny and disused, I broke free of the crowd and run down it. At the end there was a young boy in shabby clothes, he was levitating an object from the top of a tall box. As soon as he saw me his eyes widened in surprise and he dropped the item, he looked straight into my eyes and I could feel power building. My eyes grew tired and I started thinking that there couldn’t possibly be anything more wonderful then to curl up and go to sleep right then and there but I knew what he was doing, the spell of sleeping was among the first a new apprentice learned. However all to soon my eyes were to heavy and before I could think of rallying my power my eyes were closed and there was darkness.
I was buzzing with nervous energy when I woke up. I made my favorite breakfast but it did nothing to clam my nerves, I was barely able to enjoy it as I thought about what might be on the test.
Finally I was ready to go. I walked into the village and there was a crowd waiting. As I pushed my way through to the Grand Tester I heard people wish me luck. Their voices sounded distant, as though they were far away, though I knew they were standing very close.
The Grand Tester smiled at me as I made it to the front.
“The test is not as hard as you think, I expect you’ll be feeling nervous and weary but follow your instincts and I know you’ll be fine.” He assured me. His words made me feel calmer and I sternly told myself that I could do this, I just had to believe. “Please step this way and I’ll take you to your test”
I stepped in front of him, he placed his hand on my shoulder and suddenly we were in a different setting altogether.
Tomorrow was my wisdom test and as I sat in my bedroom staring at the stars I could feel the butterflies fluttering around my stomach. If I did well I would be granted full status as a wise women and given my mystical seal. I slowly made my way over to my bed, thinking deeply about what test might be chosen to test me tomorrow. I sat on my bed and crossed my legs, closed my eyes and stilled my thoughts. Immediately I felt much better, I drew the power within my body together and focused on creating a spirit ball, soon I could feel it warming my hands, I imagined a glass ball around the spirit power and set it spinning. Though I didn’t open my eyes I imagined it was a bright ball of many colours spining and shinning briliantly. I reabsorbed the spirit ball and opened my eyes.
Feeling much calmer I got into bed and sent a quick prayer of strength to the goddess. I let my self drift into sleep.
Before I get into the story I have a few things to explain; I’ll do the story in installments (ideally daily), they will be in a different font from my regular posts and filed under ‘Story’ (hopefully when I get more into it I’ll think of a name ‘^_^). Here’s the first part, just a little taste to get started XD
So this is it?
How did I get to this point? I looked over all the decisions that had lead to this I just couldn’t see it coming.
Standing here at the alter, all eyes turned to us as I watched him betray me. I’d never thought that he would do it but then what hadn’t I been wrong about?
Forever
I was sitting on a rocky outcrop at the beach, staring out over the ocean as the sunset as I heard his footsteps. A light breeze blew my hair and as he sat next to me I looked down into the water. He placed swept my hair aside and put a flower behind my ear, lifted my chin and looked into my eyes.
“The flower suits you Kira, I knew it would. The Magnolia is beautiful, elegant and tough” he smiled “I know you’re nervous about tomorrow but you’ll be great, I know you can do anything you set your mind to”
I’m learning to play Colours of the Wind at the moment, it’s such a beautiful piece <3
I also used my PokeWalker (from HeartGold)for the first time today I really like it. I transferred my Sandshrew across and went out to the music store and I managed to find three items and a Nidoran. Itransferred all the goodies to myDS and unlocked a new area (awesome XD)and then transferred my new Nidoran back to the PokeWalker as the Pokemon to be walked and went for a walkdown to the park. I want to unlock a new area and catch me a Pokemon At the moment I’ve walked up enough points for the new area but I need two more points to catcha Pokemon, can’t wait!
The walk was niceI took some time to really enjoy my surroundings; the beauty of a big arching gum tree, the elegance of a bird in flight… Then I looked around and noticed howfew people were out and about. It’s sad thatpeople don’t spend more time outdoors, there’s less interaction and not as many friendships forming. I bet you could gooutside before TV and see heaps of people. Imagine that, going outside and justgreeting everyone that you know whilstyou go for your stroll, seeing peoplewithpushers and toddlers, kids just having fun and playing around outside. I wishI could have seen the world like that…
Well on that rather wistful note I better leave you and get back to all that homework I should have been doingon the holidays but left to the last minute#^_^#
